My new lodger is exasperating, entertaining and 95 years old. He is also my father

Tessa had just recovered from breast cancer, was in the throes of getting divorced and her daughters were soon to leave home.

And in the months that followed, his unexpected wisdom and irrepressible ebullience helped to heal Tessa's pain.
